Accentra 151 689 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Do I have to order a left or right hand version of the Accentra 51 Series door closer?
No handing to specify. The 51 Series closer is non-handed, and it ships tri-packed so the same unit mounts regular arm (pull side), top jamb, or parallel arm (push side). One part number covers either swing, which is why it works well as a standardization item across a building where openings run both directions.
2) Will the Accentra 51 closer work on a door with a deep reveal?
The tri-mount package covers regular arm, parallel arm, and top jamb mounting up to a 3 inch reveal. Past 3 inches of reveal on a top jamb application you are outside what the standard arm package handles. Projection from the door face is 2-7/8 inches.
3) Is the Accentra 51 Series closer strong enough for a heavy exterior door?
Spring power is adjustable across sizes 1 through 6, so one closer covers everything from a light interior door up through a wide or heavy exterior opening. Set the size on install rather than ordering by door width. It carries a 12 million cycle rating and a cast aluminum body, which is what puts it in the industrial duty class rather than light commercial.
4) Does the Accentra 51 door closer meet ADA and Grade 1 requirements?
It is ANSI/BHMA A156.4 Grade 1 certified and ADA compliant. For a facility standardizing on Grade 1 hardware across offices, schools, or healthcare corridors, the adjustable 1-6 spring lets you dial opening force down to meet accessibility requirements on interior doors while still using the same closer on heavier openings.
5) Which mounting should I use for the Accentra 51 on an out-swinging exterior door?
On an out-swinging exterior door the closer belongs on the interior, which means parallel arm mounting on the push side, or top jamb to the frame. Regular arm would put the closer and its 2-7/8 inch projection outside in the weather. All three options ship in the same tri-packed carton, so the decision is made at install, not at order.
6) What is the closest cross-brand equivalent to the Accentra 51 Series tri-packed surface closer with adjustable size 1-6?
The Accentra 51 Series is a size 1-6 adjustable surface closer that ships tri-packed for regular arm, top jamb, and parallel arm mounting. The Norton Rixson 8501A is a Grade 1 tri-mount surface closer with an adjustable size 1-6 spring, and the Arrow DCN325 is a Grade 1 tri-pack surface closer with adjustable spring size 1-6 supplied less cover. Both cover the same power range and the same three mounting positions, so either can be specified where the opening calls for a field-adjustable tri-mount closer.
7) What should I use instead of the Accentra 51 Series on an extra heavy traffic opening?
The Accentra 51 Series is a cast aluminum body closer rated in excess of 12 million cycles. For openings specified as extra heavy duty, the BEST EHD9000 Series is an extra heavy-duty Grade 1 surface closer with adjustable spring sizes 1-6, and the Sargent 281 Powerglide is a heavy duty Grade 1 surface closer with a cast iron body. The Sargent 1431 Powerglide is another heavy duty Grade 1 option with adjustable spring power.
8) Is there a hold open closer comparable to the Accentra 51 Series tri-packed hold open arm?
The Accentra 51 Series is offered with a tri-packed hold open arm. The Orca Hardware BHDC1958HO/PA is also a tri-packed hold open arm closer, supplied with a parallel bracket and listed for 1-3/4 inch doors. The Stanley Security A45-501HL is a long hold open arm closer configured for top jamb mounting, so it suits an opening where only the frame face is available.
9) What looks like a substitute for the Accentra 51 Series but will not mount the same way?
The Accentra 51 Series ships tri-packed so one unit covers regular arm, top jamb, or parallel arm mounting. Several surface closers are built around a single mounting configuration instead. The Corbin Russwin DC5230 is a Grade 1 surface closer with a slide track arm standard for pull side mounting, the Corbin Russwin DC6200 uses a double lever regular arm for pull side mounting, and the Dorma 8916-JT is a Grade 1 jamb track closer for frame face pull side mounting. The Calibre CA8001P is a parallel arm only closer. Confirm the arm and mounting side before swapping any of these in.
10) What is a Grade 1 barrier free alternative to the Accentra 51 Series for an ADA opening?
The Accentra 51 Series is ADA compliant with independent latch, sweep, and backcheck valves. For barrier free openings, the Cal-Royal 500S is a Grade 1 barrier free closer with adjustable back-check and the Cal-Royal N900PBF is a Grade 1 barrier free hydraulic surface closer. The Calibre CA9901 is a Grade 1 tri-pack arm ADA closer in size 2-5, and the Imperial USA TC4300 is a heavy duty size 1-6 ADA closer.
11) I need delayed action rather than the hold open arm on the Accentra 51 Series. What closer should I look at?
The Accentra 51 Series arm configuration is a tri-packed hold open arm. Where the opening needs the door to close slowly on its own instead of standing open, the Orca Hardware BHDC1958DA/PA is a delayed action closer with a regular arm and parallel bracket for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Orca BHDC2011DA/PA is a delayed action closer in the same regular arm with parallel bracket configuration. Both are non-hold open arms.
12) Can I adjust closing speed and latch speed separately on the Accentra 51?
Yes, there are three separate and independent valves: latch speed, sweep speed, and backcheck intensity. That means you can slow the sweep for accessibility, speed up the last few degrees so the latch throws properly, and set backcheck independently to protect the door and wall on a windy exterior opening. The valves are staked so they cannot be backed out of the body.
13) How far will a door open with the Accentra 51 Series closer installed?
All standard arm applications on the 51 Series allow 180 degrees of swing, conditions permitting. Conditions permitting matters: wall returns, adjacent hardware, and the projection of the closer arm can stop the door short of 180 regardless of what the closer allows.
14) Does the Accentra 51 closer come with a cover?
The 51 Series closers are supplied less cover, so the cast aluminum body and adjustment valves stay exposed. That is standard for industrial and back-of-house applications where access to the valves matters more than appearance. If the opening is on a finished public corridor and you want the body concealed, look at a full-cover closer such as the Dexter DCH1000 Series, which is a Grade 1 tri-mount closer supplied with a full cover.
15) What is the difference between the Accentra 51 and a hold-open closer?
A hold-open arm lets the door stand open at a set angle until it is pushed shut, which suits loading areas and stockrooms. Note that the 51 Series arm package is supplied in a non-hold-open configuration. If you need a true hold open on a comparable tri-packed closer, the Orca Hardware BHDC1958 hold open with parallel bracket is a tri-packed hold open arm closer for 1-3/4 inch doors. Do not use hold open on a fire-rated opening unless it is tied to an electrified release.
16) What is a comparable Grade 1 adjustable size 1-6 closer if I am not standardizing on Accentra?
Several close matches in the same adjustable 1-6, Grade 1 class: the Norton Rixson 8501A is a Grade 1 tri-mount closer with adjustable size 1-6 spring, and the BEST EHD9000 Series is an extra heavy-duty Grade 1 surface closer with adjustable spring sizes 1-6. The Dormakaba 8916-JT is also Grade 1 heavy duty size 1-6, but it uses a jamb track arm with frame face pull side mounting rather than a tri-pack, so it is not a drop-in for the same prep.
17) Is the Accentra 51 overkill for a light interior office door?
For a low-traffic interior door you do not need a 12 million cycle industrial body. Lighter-duty options in the same surface-mounted category include the BEST SL6000 Series, a Grade 1 light duty closer with adjustable spring sizes, and the LCN 1250 Series, a light duty ADA compliant closer in sizes 1-5. The 51 Series earns its place on entrances, stairwells, warehouse and high-cycle corridor doors where the closer gets worked hard.
18) If the opening only needs a size 1-4 closer, what is an alternative to the Accentra 51 Series?
The Accentra 51 Series covers adjustable spring sizes 1 through 6. Where the door only calls for the lower end of that range, the Arrow DCN314 is a Grade 1 tri-pack surface closer with adjustable spring size 1-4, and the Dormakaba 7414 is a medium duty Grade 1 closer in size 1-4. Both narrow the power range to the smaller interior doors while keeping surface mounting.
19) What is a lighter duty alternative to the Accentra 51 Series for low traffic interior doors?
The Accentra 51 Series is an industrial closer rated past 12 million cycles. Where the door sees light traffic, the BEST SL6000 Series is a light duty Grade 1 surface closer with adjustable spring sizes, the Norton Rixson 160 Series is a light duty Grade 1 light commercial closer with an adjustable spring, and the LCN 1250 is a light duty closer in sizes 1-5 with all-weather fluid. The Falcon SC91A is a light duty cast aluminum closer carrying a Grade 3 rating rather than Grade 1.
20) Is there a tri-mount closer that comes with a full cover, unlike the Accentra 51 Series units supplied without one?
The Accentra 51 Series is offered in configurations supplied without a cover. The Dexter DCH1000 Series is a Grade 1 tri mount surface closer, regular, parallel, or top jamb mounted, supplied with a full cover, and the Design Hardware 316 Series is a medium to heavy duty tri-packed closer supplied with a cover. Either suits an opening where the closer is visible and a finished cover is wanted.
21) If my spec allows Grade 2 instead of Grade 1, what closer can I use in place of the Accentra 51 Series?
The Accentra 51 Series is ANSI/BHMA A156.4 Grade 1 certified. Where the specification only calls for Grade 2, the Cal-Royal 400 Series is a Grade 2 commercial hydraulic door closer. Confirm the door schedule first, since fire rated and high traffic openings frequently require the Grade 1 unit.
22) Which medium duty closers can I standardize on alongside the Accentra 51 Series across a building?
The Accentra 51 Series is a non-handed, size 1-6 adjustable closer suited to office, education, healthcare, retail, and multi-tenant residential doors. For medium traffic doors in the same facility, the Sargent 1331 is a Grade 1 adjustable surface closer with a universal aluminum body, the Sargent 1131 is a Grade 1 adjustable closer for medium-traffic commercial use, the Norton Rixson 1601P is a Grade 1 medium duty tri-mount closer with 180 degree swing, and the LCN 1450 is a medium duty cast aluminum closer in spring sizes 1-6.
23) What is the difference between the Accentra 51 Series and the Falcon SC71A or SC81A closers?
The Accentra 51 Series is a Grade 1 cast aluminum body closer, size 1-6 adjustable, tri-packed for regular arm, top jamb, and parallel arm mounting. The Falcon SC71A is a Grade 1 heavy-duty surface-mount closer, while the Falcon SC81A is a Grade 1 medium duty cast aluminum closer and the SC61A is rated light to medium duty in cast aluminum. Match the duty level to the traffic on the opening rather than assuming the series numbers are interchangeable.
24) For an aluminum storefront door, is the Accentra 51 Series the right closer or is there a better fit?
The Accentra 51 Series is a tri-packed industrial closer with 2-7/8 inch projection and 180 degree swing where conditions permit. The Norton Rixson 1600 Series is a heavy duty Grade 1 aluminum storefront door closer with tri-style mounting, which targets narrow stile aluminum openings specifically. Verify the stile width against the closer template before ordering either.
25) What finishes does the Accentra 51 industrial closer come in?
Seven finishes: 689 aluminum painted, 690 dark bronze painted, 691 light bronze painted, 693 black painted, 694 medium bronze painted, 696 satin brass painted, and 613E dark oxidized satin bronze equivalent. The painted finishes are the usual pick when matching an existing bank of closers, since 689 and 690 are the two most common on commercial openings.
26) What is inside the Accentra 51 closer body, and why does that matter for high-traffic doors?
Rack and pinion mechanism in a cast aluminum body, with a 1-3/8 inch diameter piston and 5/8 inch diameter pinion journals. The larger journal and piston are what carry the load on a heavy door being slammed thousands of times a week, and they are the reason the unit is rated past 12 million cycles. For a property manager, that translates to fewer service calls on entry and stairwell doors.
27) Are the Stanley wardrobe pivots a substitute for the Accentra 51 Series closer?
No. The Accentra 51 Series is a surface mounted hydraulic door closer with rack and pinion operation and adjustable latch, sweep, and backcheck valves. The Stanley Security 327 and 341 are wardrobe pivots, hanging hardware for cabinet and wardrobe doors, with no closing mechanism. They do not perform any part of the closer's function.
